1of9

1997 Midwest RegionalSemifinals: Minnesota 90, Clemson 84; UCLA 74, Iowa State 73 — Both went to overtime, with the top-seed Gophers needing two of them to beat Clemson. Bobby Jackson scored a career-high 36 points and Sam Jacobson had 29 for Minnesota. Cameron Dollar’s bank shot with 1.9 seconds left game him 20 points and UCLA a win over the Cyclones. Final: Minnesota 80, UCLA 72 — The Gophers overcame a 10-point deficit in the final 13 minutes to advance to the Final Four, but NCAA sanctions for academic fraud wiped it all from official existence. Attendance: Semis (29,231); final (31,930)
